RafayLabs is the independent studio of Abdul Rafay: you work directly with the developer who builds your app. React Native app development services from Pakistan: cross-platform iOS & Android apps from one codebase, startup MVPs in 4 to 6 weeks, and the full App Store and Google Play release. Built with React Native and Expo SDK for 60 FPS performance and offline reliability.
Every mobile product I craft incorporates rock-solid state management, offline durability, clean architecture, and silky smooth native user interactions.
Single clean TypeScript codebase powering both iOS and Android. Full support for native gestures, Dynamic Island, widgets, and platform-specific capabilities without maintaining two engineering teams.
Sub-millisecond data reads and writes using MMKV, SQLite, and WatermelonDB. Apps function 100% reliably in offline environments, synchronizing effortlessly with background cloud workers.
Production-grade integration of Apple In-App Purchases, Google Play Billing, Stripe mobile elements, localized mobile wallets (e.g. M-Pesa), Google Maps GPS, Camera, and Biometrics.
Complete submission handling for Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Privacy manifests, App Review compliance, TestFlight staging, and automated Over-The-Air (OTA) updates.
Beyond standard app development, I focus on high-difficulty technical problem spaces where generic agencies struggle.
For logistics, field operations & medical workflows
I design resilient local-first data layers with WatermelonDB and SQLite that keep apps functioning at full speed without internet, executing conflict-free merges upon reconnect.

Full-stack bilingual delivery ecosystem with Urdu voice notes, handwritten photo parchi parsing, driver GPS routing, and instant vendor inventory synchronization.
Full-Stack Marketplace Suite (~58k LOC)
Complete beauty marketplace in Nairobi with automated M-Pesa STK Push payments, real-time in-app Pusher messaging, live calendar scheduling, and provider business portal.
Intelligent Workout & Nutrition Companion
iOS fitness application featuring automated rep counting, personalized AI workout routines, Apple HealthKit sync, and multi-tier RevenueCat subscription monetization.
Medication & Emergency Alert System
High-reliability health tracker for iOS & Android with dosage compliance tracking, emergency automated SMS alerts to trusted contacts, and Firebase cloud sync.
Transparent sprint execution from day 1, with answers to common technical and platform questions.
State machine definitions, local persistence schema, and API contracts before coding.
Within 10 days, an interactive physical device build running core user flows.
Stress-testing memory leaks, network edge cases, and locked 60 FPS performance.
App Store & Play Store approval with EAS CI/CD for instant live Over-The-Air updates.
Yes, for most products. React Native renders real native components on iOS and Android from one TypeScript codebase, so you build, test and maintain one app instead of two. With the Hermes engine and the New Architecture, well-built React Native apps feel as smooth as native ones.
Cross-platform mobile development means building one app that runs on both iOS and Android from a single codebase, instead of writing a separate Swift app and Kotlin app. RafayLabs uses React Native with Expo: one TypeScript codebase, native UI components, and one release pipeline for the App Store and Google Play.
Yes. One React Native codebase produces both the iOS app and the Android app. Most of the code is shared, and platform-specific parts, such as some permissions or payment flows, are handled where needed.
It depends on the scope: the number of user flows, the backend, and integrations such as payments and maps. Because one codebase covers both platforms, it usually costs much less than building separate native iOS and Android apps. You get a written quote after a 15-minute scope call.
Yes. For early-stage startups and funded ventures, I typically deliver an initial functional TestFlight prototype within 10 to 14 days. A complete production-ready mobile MVP with backend APIs, authentication, and core business workflows is delivered in 4 to 6 weeks.
Yes. RafayLabs is based in Pakistan and builds iOS and Android apps for local and international clients. The founder has shipped React Native apps for Pakistan (GharTak, with Urdu voice-note ordering), Kenya (GlanzGo, with M-Pesa payments) and a UK company (Accentify).
Yes, 100%. I handle developer account setup, provisioning profiles, privacy manifests, TestFlight staging, and guide your app through Apple's strict Human Interface Guidelines and App Review compliance until live approval.
Yes. I frequently conduct codebase audits, eliminate memory leaks, upgrade legacy React Native setups to the latest Expo SDK and New Architecture, and optimize slow re-rendering components to achieve silky-smooth 60 FPS interactions.
I architect applications with local-first databases like MMKV, SQLite, or WatermelonDB. All user interactions read and write instantly to local storage without spinners or network wait times, syncing with cloud backends in the background when connectivity is restored.
From new mobile MVPs to 60 FPS codebase refactors, RafayLabs is ready to engineer your product with startup velocity and enterprise reliability.
